For an 8hp Briggs & Stratton engine, it is recommended to use SAE 30 weight oil for warmer temperatures and 5W-30 for colder conditions. Always check the owner’s manual for specific oil recommendations, as some models may have unique requirements. Ensure the oil meets the API service classification for small engines. Regular oil changes will help maintain engine performance and longevity.

What is the oil capacity in Mtd snow thrower 8hp?

Depends on the engine. Generally between a pint and a quart. A Briggs and Straton 8hp takes about 24oz. Kohler or TecumsehPower should be close to that as well. If you are changing the oil and the engine has a dipstick, I would put in a pint (16oz) and then check the stick. If it is still low, I would add about 2oz at a time and check again until it does read full. If it is older and does not have a dipstick, just fill it until the oil comes right to the mouth of the fill opening.
